No, because 15% of 37.52 is 5.62, 37.52 + 5.62 = 43.12. So the desired tip is too high of a percentage

Answer:

No, she will go $3.15 above 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since the tip is 15%, you can either multiply 37.52 by 1.15 or 0.15. In the route of multiplying by 0.15, you need to add it to 37.52. I will multiply by 1.15 to make it easier.

2. 37.52x1.15 = 43.148 or about $43.15 (rounded).
